Ratchet Clutch

The ratchet clutch allows implement overload protection with a unique pulsating torque while disengaged. When the overload occurs, the torque is transmitted in pulses accompanied by an audible sound. This pulsation aids in pushing clearing the blockage. Therefore, the operator may not need to leave the operator seat or even slow down to clear the blockage. The clutch will re-engage when the transmitted torque drops below the calibrated torque value.
